Special Collections

Our Special Collections are composed of manuscript collections, rare books, pamphlets, and artifacts related to nineteenth and early twentieth century science and technology.

These collections are available for use in the archives during our normal hours.

About this Database

This database contains selected guides for the archival and manuscripts collections held by the Institute Archives and Special Collections department. Additional guides will be added as time permits.

While most of the guides are fully searchable, some of the collection inventories are in PDF format. These can only be searched within the PDF document, including inventories of the Roebling, Horsford, Skilton, Women's Club, Student Life, Phalanx, Alpha Phi Omega, and Sports collections.
